Experience runs a dear school
but fools will learn no where else.
Experience runs a hard school
but morons will not learn even there!
It is classic case of these two freaks
the irresistible force and
the immovable object.

Pleasure
Pleasure is a sin and sometimes Sin is a pleasure.
Lord Byron
(Who can be better qualified to talk about sins and pleasures than the "mad bad and dangerous to know" Lord Byron?)
One half of the world cannot understand the
the pleasure of the other.

“Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your ownroom.”

“The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.”

Some people feel giving attention to their words is a great need of the hour.

Usually those who accomplish something are generally dissatisfied
since they want to perform better and rise to greater heights.
It is the non achiever (who imagines himself to be an achiever) that feels
as snug as a bug in a rug.
We just have to look around if we need examples for people giving
undue self-importance as if the world will come to a grinding halt - but
for their superior guidance and words of wisdom.

Poets and Poetry
Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world. :thumb:
P.B.Shelly.
There is pleasure in poetic pains
Which only the poets know.
William Cowper
If poetry comes not as naturally as leaves
to a tree it had better not come at all.
John Keats.
